Fixed Satellite Services

We have created low-cost, reliable solutions for many emergency responders. Call us today to find out how we can create a custom solution for you.

Whether you're a mining operation in Mexico needing data and voice communications, a U.S. retailer distributing training via IP Multicast to hundreds of sites, or a clothing manufacturer in Morocco tracking production; IsoTropic can bring you powerful and non-stop IP connectivity exceeding your most demanding requirements.

Portable Satellite Phones

Portable satellite technology addresses the need for those that are on the go. Our offerings of Iridium and BGAN portable systems allow for worldwide communication without being dependent upon local or unreliable cell services. The BGAN platforms allows for VoIP and data. The Iridium network offers voice connectivity. Small, portable, and effective; IsoTropic offer pay-as-you-go service plans allowing you to control your cost and maintain connectivity in far off locations.

Maritime Communications

Voice, fax, weather, high speed data, video, Internet...

Whether you operate a luxury yacht or a shipping company with tankers, cargo vessels and container ships, using traditional pay-by-the-minute satellite solutions have become costly and may not provide the advanced features available with satellite. The high fees associated with these solutions also limit companies' abilities to utilize their corporate IT infrastructure effectively. Broadband At-Sea IP-based VSAT services enable unlimited voice and fax, corporate networking, always-on maritime Internet connectivity and data streaming applications for a fixed price.

IsoTropic's iMariSat stabilization systems provide the most reliable satellite communications.

From C-Band to Ku-Band, you'll see the difference in stable signal levels, fewer acquisition losses, and lower bit-error rates even in storm conditions. Our qualified staff and extensive dealer network located at ports around the world have many years of experience in management and service of maritime communication traffic. We are also continually developing and increasing our levels of efficiency and service in order to meet the demands of our ever expanding International client base. Our existing infrastructure and accumulated experience means that we can serve your maritime satellite communication needs in an extremely timely manner.

Satellite Communications Network Security

Isotopic Networks ensures your equipment remains safe, secure, and fully operational with state-of-the-art security measures such as:

• Smoke detection
• Independent power-generator failover
• Fire suppression systems
• 24x7 secured access
• 24x7 staffing

Emergency Satellite Communications

IsoTropic Networks operates the most technically advanced diverse routed Teleport operation in the Americas. We understand the importance of Emergency Satellite Communications. While many emergency responders rely on local cell or municipal radio networks in case of a disaster, you are not assured that a car, truck, trailer or parts of a home will not collide with and render a tower useless.

Our experience in numerous emergency situations has caused us to develop an unparalleled breadth of satellite emergency services. Many municipalities and State governments have been forced to reduce budgets and sacrifice certain communications contingency plans. With IsoTropic's continuity plans you can subscribe to minimum service levels which keep your satellite emergency equipment active on our network and when required go to full throughput with one simple phone call.

Virtual Network Operator

IsoTropic Network's Virtual Network Operator (VNO) solutions enable our Resellers a powerful tool for the management and control of their client base. This includes visibility of real-time statistics, control of remote site configurations such as QoS and Filtering, and the ability to create Group QoS Profiles that allow for true end-user Service Level Agreements (SLA). All this without the large initial capital outlays and day-to-day expenses required to run a world-class teleport.

IsoTropic offers three levels of VNO services. Each is competitively priced to help you meet your growth targets.

• Hardware VNO
• VNO License
• CNO



Hardware VNO




The Hardware VNO offers all the opportunity of the VSAT industry without the capital outlay required to deploy a wholly-owned and separate teleport infrastructure.




This service creates a separate network on top of the HUB Network Operator's (HNO) assets with a completely independent data path, upgrade autonomy and the highest level of scalability. The VNO Package includes:

• Independent and fully owned NMS (with optional spare)
• Independent and fully owned PP (with optional spare)
• HUB Line Card (M1D1)
• Software License for 1 VNO



The Hardware VNO starts with a single HUB Line Card (HLC), but can quickly scale into larger networks by adding additional HLCs and Protocol Processors.




This VNO model allows new operators to develop niche opportunities worldwide, providing them with the scalability, increased security, autonomy, independent software upgrade path, and state of the art network management tools to deliver the applications and services customers require.




VNO License




The VNO License offers cost effective access to opportunities in the VSAT industry without assuming up-front capital outlays. This service allows the VNO to deploy a logically separate network on top of the HNO's assets.

This option enables multiple small to medium size VNOs to run on the same hardware infrastructure (wholly owned by the HNO) with a logically independent data path. Each VNO License includes a single software license for one virtual network operator on a single NMS.

As VNO networks experience greater network demand, they can migrate to a Hardware VNO with a simple hardware upgrade. The VNO License allows new operators to develop niche opportunities regionally, while providing them with interim scalability, a medium level of autonomy, and state of the art network management tools, security and functionality to deliver the applications customers demand.




CNO




The CNO option represents a monitor-only solution for an operator with no configuration functionality and very limited control of the remote clients. With the CNO option, you have the ability to monitor your specific set of remotes/clients including real-time utilization statistics and remote site status.

IsoTropic Networks provides all the regular functions of providing service to your end customer including configurations, commissioning and troubleshooting. When the Reseller wishes to control functionality of the client base, the migration path to a VNO License of hardware VNO is available.




IsoTropic Networks Teleport and VNO Support Includes:

• Use of IsoTropic Teleport Facilities
• Choice of 5 satellite footprints
• UPS Backup
• Back-Up Power Generators
• Dual Redundant Internet Backbone (with full diverse routing)
• Uplink Power Management
• VNOs have access to remote Spectrum Analyzer for all feeds, both polarities
• 24/7 Tier 2 service (NOC to NOC) from our world class Network Operations Center

Resellers are encouraged to purchase required space segment directly from the satellite owner.




IsoTropic's Monthly Service Fees include:

• Teleport Services Fee (Per MHz)
• Backbone Fee (Per Mbps)
• Co-Location Fee (Per RU for Reseller owned hardware)
• HUB Slot Rental (Per Slot or Slot group)
• HUB Line Card Rental (VNO License Only)
• HUB NMS/PP Rental (VNO License Only)



Additional Costs (that may apply):

• Commissioning Fee (one-time per site)
• Remote Site Hardware

Virtual Private Networking

Virtual Private Networking (VPN) enables our customers a secure and reliable connection from their remote site to the corporate office using the Encore Networks VSR and Bandit devices. These devices along with the iDirect system eliminate the latency and application failure found with running normal IPSec VPN over VSAT connections.

When running any IP based application over VSAT, all service providers have TCP acceleration which is required to support basic TCP communications. Without this acceleration, the IP sessions would time out due to basic physics with respect to VSAT. This acceleration is commonly comprised of processors called Performance Enhancing Proxy Servers or PEP. All VSAT service providers have a similar process but all are unique to their network topology.

Encore Networks brings its patented IPSec VPN solution to the VSAT industry called Selective Layer Encryption (SLE). SLE is designed to enhance VPN and work in tandem with PEP providing fully encrypted IPSec data. SLE can be found in all of Encore's VSR™ and BANDIT™ routers.

Whether connecting one remote site to a single office or to several, IsoTropic Networks will deliver a superior connection to meet our customers' needs.
